From the reviews

Wolverine martial arts is by far one of the best jiu jitsu gyms in the Rockwall/Rowlett area. My 3 kids train here up to 7 days a week here. The schedule is flexible enough to accommodate everyone from 6am, noon and evening classes. Professors Mark and John are friendly and very knowledgeable.

★★★★★ — P, Jul 2024

I LOVE being a part of the Wolverine Family! I had wanted to put my two daughters in Brazilian Jiujitsu to help with self defense as they were dealing with bullying. Both my brother and a WWE client of mine suggested I put them in Brazilian Jiujitsu.

★★★★★ — Cher, Mar 2023

I had the pleasure of visiting Wolverine MMA a few times, and it was one of the coolest experiences I’ve ever had. I trained Muay Thai with Frank, and he was the greatest instructor I’ve ever met, showing heavy knowledge and care for his students.

★★★★★ — Meris, Sep 2025

I’ve been training here for a week after my prev gym closed. I’d recommend this place to any beginner/hobbyist. The morning class led by coach John is phenomenal. They do stay after class for Q&A activities. Mats are cleaned daily.

New to muay thai? Start at Wolverine Martial Arts

Wolverine Martial Arts comes up as a beginner-friendly gym — noted on their own site. If you've never thrown a punch or a kick, that's exactly who a good beginners program is for. A few things worth knowing before your first week. First, you don't need to be fit to start — you get in shape by training, not before it, and coaches scale the conditioning to you. Second, you won't be thrown into sparring — reputable gyms build fundamentals (stance, footwork, and the basic strikes of the "art of eight limbs") for weeks before any contact, and sparring stays optional. Third, all levels really are welcome — ask about a dedicated beginners or fundamentals class time so your first session is alongside others who are also starting out. Most gyms are happy to let you watch or try a class first, so reach out before you commit.

Your first muay thai class at Wolverine Martial Arts

Nervous about walking into a muay thai gym for the first time? Almost everyone is, and good coaches expect beginners to come through the door. Here's what to know. What to expect: a typical first class is a warm-up, then drilling the basics on pads and bags — not fighting. Rest whenever you need to; no one will bat an eye. What to wear: shorts or athletic wear and a t-shirt; you'll train barefoot on the mats. What to bring: water and hand wraps if you have them — many gyms lend gloves for a first class, so it's worth asking when you call. As you keep training you'll add your own gloves, wraps, a mouthguard, and shin guards. Sparring is optional and comes later, once your fundamentals are solid. Arrive 10–15 minutes early to sign a waiver and meet the coach. It gets easier fast — most people feel far more at home by their third class.

Muay thai is a contact sport. Ease in, listen to your coaches, and if you have any injuries or health concerns, mention them before class and check with a doctor if you're unsure.
